I use GooManager app. It helps sometimes if the links aren't working for some reason. Plus it downloads directly on your device so you can avoid copying.
I've searched all over everywhere, and I can't even find noobs like me asking about this. Is MultiROM or a multi boot solution for the Nexus 10 in progress?

there is no such thing and this is more like a question rather than android development.
Actually , it does exist: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2011403 on the Nexus 7 but nothing like that here unfortunetly.

The advantages of root are the same as on your old device.
You can, there are a lot of tutorials around that show exactly how.
Through a custom recovery
Just disable root. Use search
Your a big boy (I suppose) use search and do some research.

Yes men, before i post this i search a find awsner´s , but in this forum are so many post´s of the same but with different awsner that i put my question here!
I wanna root my nexus 4 and try other ROM´s , but i don´t know if i after install a custom ROM and then flash the Stock again and for example, the Android 4.4 KitKat get´s release if i go check my update will be there for i update, you know what i mean ? can you awnser that for me please ?
But i will have some research, and thank you for your awsner and sorry for anything.
Just root it and play around with all the custom roms. The curiosity will eventually make you do it and if you end up not liking it u can always go back to stock.
Is there any way to change font style without rooting nexus 4? I'm really frustrated with this font style.! Please advise!

No, to install fonts you need to have access to the /system partition which you do not have unless you are rooted.
Rooting a nexus is very easy though.

Yes, you do. But with apps like titanium and carbon, you've got everything backed up. Everything else is synced with google. I don't find it too hard to do full wipes after the second time you do it.

A dev in the past did try to port the rom over the N4 but it was in it's experimental phases and hasn't been worked on for months. It buried somewhere in the N4 development forum.
here's a nice treat for ya.
